Ledger has confirmed that one of the devices caught up in its Southeast Asia wallet-drain probe contained an “unauthorized hardware implant,” marking the first time the hardware-wallet maker has verified physical tampering in a case that on-chain analysts estimate has already cost users more than $86 million. In an update from its official support account , Ledger said it was reaching out to affected customers while stressing that its own security infrastructure, systems, and services were not compromised. The finding is tied to devices sold through CryptoBilis, a reseller Ledger lists for Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines.
